##(see the SpecSpec for an explanation) * '''Launchpad Entry''': https://launchpad.net/products/easyubuntu/+spec/eu-dapper-compat * '''Created''': 2006-04-13 by VenkatRaghavan * '''Contributors''': KyleBrooks * '''Packages affected''': == Summary == Spec for EasyUbuntu on Dapper, this page also lists possible improvements (packagewise) to EasyUbuntu for Dapper. == Rationale == People will inevitably want to use EasyUbuntu on Dapper. However, we want to retain backward compatibility with Breezy. == Design == * An xml file containing the list of packages and configuration commands is present in the pkglist-release-arch.xml format, containing the different packages and configuration commands. EU will read and load a gui, and execute them based on the xml file == Implementation == || Detect whether breezy/dapper system (lsb-release -c) || (./) || || Detect the architecture || (./) || || Read the packagelist file appropriate file || (./) || || Load gui based on the file || (./) || === Code === * Initial Working Implementation is available in branches/eudeb == Outstanding issues == * To handle translations from xml files, hopefully gui translations are automatic ---- CategorySpec
